Year 3 have been so lucky this afternoon to receive a visit from Edzoocation. They have visited us with a variety of different animals as part of our science topic. During the visit, our children were able to demonstrate and recap their knowledge of animals groups and skeleton types. They were also able to hold and handle a variety of different animals, including a snake, a tortoise, a ferret, a sugar glider and a baby owl.

In science, year 3 have been learning about the human skeleton. As part of the lesson, the children used objects in our outside areas to create their very own human skeletons. They thought carefully about the size and shape of the objects depending on the bones they were representing.
Year 3 have been learning all about nutrition in science. They can discuss each of the food groups and also read the traffic light food labelling system. We have discussed healthy foods and how we should eat a healthy and balanced diet, but we are also allowed an occasional treat!

We made tin foil boats for our substances and Mrs Smith added 300ml of hot water
